Chapter 592 Working for The Matthews
"Grandpa, I spent a fortune creating this dog poop pill! Just the cost of the ingredients alone was 99.99, with nine being the highest single-digit number, symbolizing a wish for you to live even longer than turtles and tortoises," Daniel said with a straight face, until his last quip earned him a fierce pinch from Jessica on his midsection.
"Ouch! Ouch!" Daniel cried out in mock distress.
"Honey, why are you pinching me?"
"And why do you think I'm pinching you? What kind of foolish talk was that?"
"I'm wishing Grandpa long-life! Turtles live a long time; I'm giving him a blessing!"
"You're the turtle! I'll twist you dead!" Jessica retorted, both annoyed and amused as she twisted Daniel's skin in her grip.
Daniel, of course, didn't dare to retaliate and only responded with melodramatic cries. "Ouch! Ouch!"
"Enough! Stop making a scene! What kind of behavior is this?" interrupted Avery sharply, restoring a semblance of order. With a goofy grin, Daniel held the infamous dog poop pill to Kind's lips. "Grandpa, wanna give it a try?"
Kind originally had no intention of consuming it. The very name 'dog poop pill,' was enough to churn one's stomach, akin to the thought of eating actual dog feces. However, as the pill approached, a delightful medicinal fragrance wafted up, captivating Kind's senses,
Thinking over the fact that this 'country boy' had once saved his life, Kind figured that despite not intending to give Jessica away to him, the pill might actually work. So, Kind took a chance and ingested the dog poop pill.
As soon as the pill settled in his stomach, Kind instantly felt lighter and more invigorated. The foul air within him seemed to fade, and his formerly congested nose opened up completely.
"Pfft... Pfft... Pfft..."

After releasing a series of embarrassingly loud farts that cleared the immediate vicinity, Kind's previously bloated belly deflated Suddenly overcome hunger a feeling he hadn't experienced in days-he reached for the roast chicken on the table and began to eat voraciously, his actions leaving everyone else dumbfounded.
"See? I told you my dog poop pill would improve Grandpa's mood and appetite right away!" Daniel boasted proudly.
Pleased, Kind offered his praise. "This dog poop pill is amazing; it worked immediately. However, no matter how effective your pills are, I'm not just going to hand Jessica over to you so easily. You'd best give up on that idea.
You must understand, The
Matthews are one of The Eight
Families of Washington. Therefore the granddaughters of The
Matthews will only marry into
equally reputable families. You may have some medical skills and talents, but you are of ordinary origin."
Then, Kind shifted his tone.
"Country boy, considering you've saved me once and provided this dog poop pill, I am willing to consider letting you work for The Matthews."
